      I played an outdoor festival this weekend, and the stage was pretty big, and if I stood in a certain spot, my bass was so loud, and it vibrated through my feet and all the way to the top of my head. I was actually thinking about Homer vibrating when I was playing (god, I love being a bass player!).

      Well, Jimi Hendrix played with his guitar the other way around. In this case, Homer's bass is still the right-side up. Oh well, I guess it's not that big a deal, I suppose the animators just decided to animate it this way lol

    I would love to learn bass.
    And guitar.
    And drums.
    And keyboard.
    And brush up my vocals.
    And the saxophone.
    And the clarinet.
    And the violin.
    And the xylophone.
    I really like music.
    Update: it's been 2 years, I can't play many things, but I've gotten half decent with my guitar and I've just started learning bass. It's been hard to find time to practice since I've been working full time and going through life, but I make time when I can and I do love it. I've got a long way to go before I start making my own music, but I'm getting there.
